Last week I had the pleasure of both providing an item for, and attending Indie Wed in Chicago! Indie Wed is a more targeted, unique wedding show that focuses on smaller, independent wedding vendors, and is oriented toward brides that are looking for something a bit different. The vibe at the show was so much more relaxed than other bridal shows I have been to, and it was jam-packed with vendors that do amazing work! Plus, Goose Island was there with my favorite Matilda beer and food pairings.

I think the part I liked best, obviously, was seeing one of our rental items displayed. Katie Jayne of Jayne Weddings Event Design and Coordination contacted me about using our Gray and White Zig Zag Table Runner in her booth at Indie Wed. Of course I said yes! I had already been planning on going to Chicago to check out the show (and see my sister and some friends), so I was excited to see an Ultrapom table runner in action.

Katie came up with such a cool, out of the ordinary concept for her booth, with lots of color incorporated through flagging tape, painted animals (love!), dipped silverware (love!), and pin cushion protea (an Aussie native flower, which of course I love!).

You can check out the rest of Katie’s photos and read about her experience at Indie Wed on her blog.
